Myeong-soo (played by Jeong Joon-ho) is a street rough who gets into fights. The energy is not a complete waste, though, because Myeong-soo's identical twin Hyeon-soo (also played by Jeong Joon-ho) has managed to take advantage of Myeong-soo's low maintenance costs to get a good education and eventually a prestigious legal career. The main consequence of this being that, every so often, Myeong-soo has to pretend to be Hyeon-soo for the greater good. Really, just to help Hyeon-soo's career,...More

And now it's time for our daily arts and culture update with our Michelle Kim. Let's see what she has for us today. Hello Michelle [Reporter : ] Hello Conn-young So what do you have for us today[Reporter : ] Coffee and Buddhist temples might seem like an odd combination. When you think of coffee, you think of caffeine and the high energy it bestows and when you think of a Buddhist temple, it's calm and cups of tea that come to mind.

[User Review] Queen of Reversals2011/12/03, Source,
The review of this drama was postponed and postponed for over half a year and when I finally gave it a green light – I forgot to bring the series with me for my vacation break. The quick re-watch was necessary.
I remember I had huge problems with starting to watch this series last year. I like (*cough*euphemism*cough*) Park Si-hoo, but the topic was absolutely out of my range of tolerance. Oh, how grave mistake! When I yielded, I was glad I started on this one.
The plot is simple and highly tricky, and it reveals nothing of the real series, so those of you who didn't have the chance to watch it or don't like spoilers, please refrain from reading, because my reviews are full of spoilers. They are also subjective, biased, and all of the insights (I hope) are based on my own personal Idaho experience, this is why I usually do reviews only of those dramas/movies that somehow "clicked" with me. If they don't, I drop them mercilessly, like I did with "Secret Garden" and "City Hunter". This is why I pour so many thoughts into them and maybe this is why I over-interpret them. But, as Umberto Eco said once, if an over-interpretation can be proven, it's not over-interpretation,...More

The lives of celebrities never fail to intrigue the regular Joes out there. Much attention is paid to what they do, who they date, and where they live.
